Cycle helmets

Some of us in the campaign wear a helmet; some don’t.

So, to wear one or not? It’s your choice – there are no laws on the subject. However, with so much data bandied around, it’s difficult to make an informed decision. Sometimes it’s easier if you narrow down the question – for example into age groups or riding style.

To look at the research and statistics, and decide for yourself, take a look at the information from the Cyclists Touring Club (CTC), who say that ‘we are not ‘anti-helmet’ and we do not take sides on whether or not it is a good idea for individual cyclists to wear them.‘.
